Prior in my 20s I was a minister and in seminary. What I couldn't shake was all the while I was doing that my mind was racing a mile a min with thoughts that were perfect for the porn industry. Eventually I realized that I was meant to be something else as these thoughts kept growing. When I eventually got to my 1st trade show I knew it was meant for me and have stayed since. Now after all these years I consider many my extended family and can't see myself doing any other job than what I'm doing now.

What made you choose marketing? I take it Python wasn't affiliated with the back end language, how much of your mainstream skills transferred to the job?
Catholic? What made you get into theology?
I grew up a holy roller, but I left that as a teenager, ofc. I was taught that anything but pentecostalism was satanic, or not real, which made it evil nonetheless. I always had this nagging urge to become a monk as a kid though, up until very recently, I've been going to Mass since last year, mostly to network. I just can't do it tbh
Funny enough, my former best friend is a TikTok pastor now, I went to his church a few times to support him and those wannabe Hillsong churches are full of horny mfs, jfc
